    It's was a simple question on the topic. The question has been answered, so now we move one.


    I guess I'll throw it out as well. I'm a pansexual *dun dun DUN* it's supposed to be a shock or something.

    And yes guys, please keep this thread on topic, these are quite sensitive areas to talk about for some people, and thus must be treated as such.

    You can probably tell I feel strongly about this subject. I essentially see the oppression against gays as a symbol of oppression in general and my support comes from trying to prove an ideal.


    By the way, is pansexual really the best way to describe a person why sets mental attraction first and foremost?


    I also finaly managed to find that comic I was looking for, anypony remember this?

    Dashie, best spokespony for the LGBT community, not that she is gay, but she is the living embodyment of their flag and therefore a great mascot, you don't have to be gay to be a supporter of the gay community, I am not gay and is one of the most vocal supporters.

    O.O no way.

    Also i think she is good because anyone can relate to her. Shes brave and strong but has a soft side. Shes one of the few characters on the show that has a whole different level of personality with multiple levels.

    Some words you might find interesting: (both definitions snagged from Urban Dictionary)

    sapiosexual
    (adj) A form of sexual orientation characterized by a strong attraction to intelligence in others, often regardless of gender and/or conventional attractiveness

    demisexual
    Demisexuals are characterized by a lack of sexual attraction toward any person unless they become deeply emotionally or romantically connected with a specific person or persons. The level of connection it takes for sexual desire to form is dependent on how close the relationship is rather than initial attraction. It is an orientation that is not chosen.

    I hope you find these helpful! Or at least maybe interesting. ^_^

    Yes, thanks this was very helpful:smile:.

    I might be demisexual, though I do not entirely lack physical attraction, it is just much weaker in me than the average person. While the sexual urges of others I know almost seem insatible, for me it gets dull pretty quickly, I seem to have a lot lower threshold. I seem more attracted to certain personality types rather than a specific individual though, that does not change the fact that this attraction deepens as I get to know them though. The main question is, how deep are my emotional connection with my current crush, Rainbow Dash? In general I feel I have known her for a long time while in reality we both haven't met and could never meet.

    Still, the overall description seem to fit. Especially with my rather weak urges in general except for certain persons with certain personality traits.

    What is called when you're really attracted to someone's personality, but they're of the same sex, and because of that, there's no physical attraction?

    homoromantic asexual comes to mind

    There is Affectional orientation To holders of this view, one's orientation is defined by whom one is predisposed to fall in love with, whether or not one desires that person physically.

    Didn't think I'd really post much in this thread, but yeah, I can actually go with that. I'm not gay nor do I have any problems with homosexuals despite growing up in a quite traditionals taught household, but sometimes mind can be more important than body. So there you have my standing.

    I see. Would a more slang term for this be "bromance?"

    Well I'd imagine that's usually what those kinds of feelings would lead to as far as the people's relationship is concerned.

    You're making me feel old. I remember when this thread started.

    I believe that is technically called "Biromantic Heterosexuality".
